Photo IC diode assemblies
For flame eye, using photo IC diode instead of CdS cell
The S10108 and S10109 sensors are designed specifically for flame detection (flame eye) in oil-fired hot water boilers and heaters. These sensors incorporate a photo IC diode instead of CdS cells and are available with 2 types of incident light direction (head-on type S10108: and side-on type: S10109). Each sensor is assembled in an easy-to-install package along with the cable.
FEATUREs
➤ Spectral response suitable for detecting oil burner
➤ Easy-to-install assembly with cable
➤ Little variation in output current and good linearity
(in comparison with conventional types using
phototransistors and CdS cells)
APPLICATIONs
➤ Flame detection in oil boilers and heaters
➤ Safety devices and alarms for heat generating devices
➤ Photorelay control devices
